A Camberwell Girls Grammar School education is world class. In part, this is because we are scanning the international scene for best practice, in part because of our pragmatic approach to innovation, and also because we are excited about investing in the future. This can be seen in the caring environment, in exemplary teaching, in the use of new technology and in the way the built environment influences learning.
Our superb new Woodstock Building was designed to complement our award-winning Junior School. There is a focus on sustainability, flexible teaching spaces, concept learning rooms and integrated common areas. It also has an outstanding Library and Resource Centre that is modelled on the concepts used in modern university libraries and is equipped to absorb the inquisitive minds of our students. Interactive environmental gardens highlight the importance that CGGS places on sustainability. This willingness to be a part of the transformation that is occurring in education ensures that Camberwell remains at the forefront.
CGGS has a consistent pattern of academic excellence, with a seven-year median ATAR score of 92. Each girl who comes to CGGS can expect her unique qualities to be valued and developed. We have an outstanding early learning, primary and secondary staff with high expectations and a passion for education. Their generosity and skill is reflected in the school’s culture. Good humour, energy and care create a wonderfully vibrant and happy school where everyone strives for excellence — both academically and as people.
One of our teachers says: “At CGGS we strive to create active learners. The girls have a great attitude to their studies — they want to be challenged and motivate each other to do their best. I am proud to be part of such a positive learning environment.” (Karin, teacher)
It is the school’s job to engage, inspire and empower all students so that they can achieve their dreams.
A former school captain says: “Over the years, Camberwell provided me with wonderful role models, both teachers and older girls. They have inspired and encouraged me to aim for my personal best in all aspects of life and importantly to always step outside of my comfort zone. I have graduated with a wonderful group of lifelong friends, a huge variety of experiences and a well-rounded educational foundation like none other.” (Elisabeth, class of 2012)
